Is a senator nomination or a congressional nomination better. Im speaking competitively is it harder to obtain a senator nomination because you are competing against everyone in the state. Can anyone break it down
I never really thought about it. It is harder to get a congressional nomination in states like Delaware and Wyoming than it is to get a senatorial nomination. But either way they are all worth the same. And that is why every candidate needs to apply to all of them.In large population states, the senatorial nom is harder to get due to high numbers of quality candidates. But as far as admissions is concerned, a top ranked congressional nom is as good as a top ranked senatorial nom.
I guess getting a Senator vs a Congressional Rep nomination is easier in states like Delaware and Wyoming, but you want to apply for them all. Neither one is better.

I'm confused by a "top ranked congressional nom". Obviously, if your congressman is chair of the armed services committee, that's a big deal. But what if you're from a district with little representation at the academies (like an inner city district in a blue state)? I thought those were desirable nominations for geographical diversity. Just really curious how this works.In large population states, the senatorial nom is harder to get due to high numbers of quality candidates.
